Since we're OT here anyway: The older the Windows get, the more often you
need to reboot. That's where this joke came from: "Windows detected you
moved the mouse cursor. Please restart Windows for the changes to take
effect". Win98 particularly sucks with that, but Win/2000 and WinXP are a
lot better, but then again never as good as Linux. I only need to reboot
after upgrading my kernel :)
